Liberty Tools Corrupts Re-Engineered ROM! - Droid X General

Ok, well I installed the Re-engineered ROM a couple hours ago and got everything setup right. It was all working fine until I opened up Liberty Tools. After I did, my wallpaper changed to a green theme one of a girl. Liberty Settings were gone from the Settings menu. It was impossible to change my wallpaper.
Basically, Liberty Tools completely corrupted my whole install.
What is the deal here? If anyone can reproduce this let me know. It is like my whole phone was hacked.
If this was just a freak occurrence then that was odd as all get out. If the Liberty team deliberately did this, I would say they would have to be the most pathetic bunch of all the Android developers.
So, can someone install the "NEWEST" Liberty Tools on the Re-Engineered ROM and tell me what happens. Make sure to backup your system first though! It is a good thing I backed up Liberty right before installing re-engineered.

screenshots?

just dont update it and you should be good. =)

Liberty works beautiful for me on re-engineered. Its built on the base of liberty so there is no reason you should have issues. It might have been a bad install

I don't know the exact cause, but I had used quite a few of the features of the Liberty Toolbox on Re-Engineered, and had no issues.
Last night I was bored, so I started changing the themes.
And ... crash. Weird stuff was going on.
I tried to restore, and the file was corrupt. Another had a invalid MD5 Sum.
I then went to re-install the ROM ... corrupt file.
I then went to re-install Liberty ROM ... corrupt file.
I basically had to get an old backup of GummyJAR to get back going. Then re-downloaded.
I'm back on Liberty right now.
Have not gotten to the point of re-downloading Re-Engineered.
So ... the corruption I don't believe came from Team Liberty.

jRummy fixed almost all issues in the Liberty Toolbox that people were having, but to get those updates, you must be running Liberty and only that.
Want the real thing, use Liberty.

+1 on the real thing (coke)....nothing like it (krystals)

You guys don't understand. The toolbix deliberately corrupts the OS just upon opening the app for the first time. I didn't actually use it but only opened it up and gave it admin priviliges.
It made changes to my phone without my consent!
Pretty sleezy of kejar and jrummy. Ive never seen anything like it. I could understand them just disabling the downloading from anything off their server, but deliberately crippling my phone because I wasn't on Liberty is just horrible on their part.

Don't they say in the market don't download or use with out root and running liberty rom?
Plus. You yourself said you gave it superuser permissions... so you gave it permission to run as root. So you gave it permission to modify you're system.
-edit-
Yup it says just that, and a requirement is liberty rom.

Obviously they would never mess up someones phone on purpose. You're just making yourself look like an asshole saying they deliberately corrupt phones.

Oh it happened alright.
First thing that happened was my wallpaper changed right away.
Second, hit menu and tried to hit 'wallpaper' and nothing happened.
Third, went into gallery to set an image as the background and it FC'ed
Fourth, noticed that 'Liberty Settings' was now gone into oblivion
Fifth, seeming my system was now corrupt, I had no choice but to revert back to the backup I just did of my Liberty install right before installing re-engineered
I wasted about 1.5 hours getting everything just how I wanted it. I don't care they disabled it to work with ROMs other than Liberty; I am just upset they deliberately screwed my system.
If they have a problem with that chingy guy, that is one thing, but I am just a user here.

Have you tried it more than once? Has it happened on anyone else's phone? Is it happening because you simply opened it? Is it because you tried to run a specific option?
Something happening one time without any testing does not call for this type of conclusion.

Ok this thread is stupid. Been biting my tongue all day.

Nope. I never ever ever had anything like what happened here. The liberty toolbox literally, maliciously corrupted my whole system simply because it was not running liberty but rather re-engineered.
If another ROM besides re-engineered or liberty is running, the liberty toolbox simply won't work.
The latest build was specifically coded to CRIPPLE the re-engineered ROM.
I think that kejar and jrummy's ROMs should actually be pulled because they are malicious devs. If they did this, what else could they be doing to our phones???!!!???
It really makes one wonder.

Syndicate Frozen lags, what could it be?

Ok I posted a few weeks back about my phone being a little laggy when I first started it up but it started becoming progressively worse even with closing all running apps in the settings>applications>running services thing cause I thought there might be a lot running but that didn't help.
So last night thinking a fresh start would help I reflashed the newest syndicate frozen rom and my phone is still being a little slower than I would want not to mention slower than everyone elses reviews. And on top of that my battery drain iis pretty bad (dropped like 20% in the last hour with moderate use).
So I was just wondering if there's any way to pinpoint what might be causing this (like certain apps running) or a way to try and correct it? Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks

Not sure what it is but ill give my experience. A while ago I had the same issue. Turn out there was something wrong with the stock ec05 tar. I had a modified version and didn't know it. No matter what rom I flashed it didn't perform well. Also, I use my epic is my main form of internet use. Most roms and mods I dl str8 to my phone. Well, it also turns out that downloading roms str8 onto the sd card game me some errors. Probably because of some fault in the data. Redownload everything you need. When you odin back to ec05 format your sd card also. Should do the trick unless there's something wrong with your phone.

One thing that might help is if you have Titanium backup or Mybackup Root freeze DRM content and SNS services. Also are you running setcpu? If so try removing it to see if that helps. If it does then your setting are off and you need to tweak your settings. Do you have journaling enabled? Another thing what kernel are you using? I liked Vision kernel over Twilight some have also mentioned Genocide being good also. I am NOT saying Twilight is a bad kernel just it does give some people issues with certain setups.

Thanks for the response. I already had drm frozen, just froze sns (what does that do?), so we'll see how that helps. I also uninstalled setcpu to see if theres any improvement there.
Im running twilight kernel, maybe if the problems persist ill have to try out another one. With kernels all I do is flash? Will any info be lost or wil I have to wipe etc? Or just flash and your good to go?
Thanks again

I'm definitely going to check into using the genocide kernel. I'm not quite sure I fully understand what a kernel does and what the differences would be to change so much? Do I have to clear data before flashing it?

Just flash the kernel no need for wipe. Just make sure you nan first.
Thanks everyone! I just rewiped and reflashed the SFR 1.1.1 again and it seems to be working fine so far.
I haven't installed all the apps I had before and don't plan on it because I have all I need on it now and it could have been an unnecessary app causing problems or just a bad wipe but either way so far so good.
Ill post back if theres any issues in the next few days. Thanks again.

Flash the genocide kernel 1.1.
"The greatest respect you can earn is self respect" Louie Simmons
Ok so I reflashed and it was working perfectly, buttery smooth no lag nothing. I was completely happy. I charged my phone and used it until about 10% turned it off and replaced the battery with a 100% charged one I have as a backup.
Once I turned it on it began lagging again, as well as draining the battery quicker than before and on top of that it did an old problem I had that I didn't mention before which when you turn off the screen it turns back on showing the lock screen then goes off after about 5 seconds.
I have no idea what it could be and why it magically came bac after a shut down/reboot :/
Also if I switch to the genocide kernel do I have t reinstall all my apps again or does it just flash and keep all info? Do I have to wipe data/cache?
Thanks again

You have to wipe cache and dalvik, then flash Genocide. It will retain all data.

Nexus s launcher

Does anyone have the actual launcher for the nexus s that doesn't look low res on eg22. I usually use the eugue373 gingerbread launcher from the market but it looks low Res for some reason. I know it was like that on ef02 and marcusant had it working correctly. Any thoughts?
There are two gingerbread launchers on the market. You might try the other one.
Just use Sprint ID. Search for the "Clean" ID and apply it. It will give you the *real* Gingerbread launcher.

No, it only gives you the gingerbread phone icon and app drawer. Id icon is still on the tab.
Bumping this.
Does anyone have a clue how to make the reg aosp launcher work correctly. Marcusant has the only rom that uses it. His Bamboozled roms use it as well and it looks great. I've even tried pulling the apk from his rom and just installing it on other ef02 eg22 roms, it works but looks like crap.
Not trying to be a troll or anything but AFAIK the only difference between the Sprint ID launcher and the standard launcher is the Sprint ID icon that cannot be changed, the menu and desktop UI is the same.

Just flashed it, very cool with 7 homescreens. Still does the same thing though. It's not super terrible looking, it's just the icons when you hit the drawer, they show up and they are like low res looking. It's been discussed before and marcusant said he knew how to fix it. I'm going to see if I can just get any info out of him on the acs forum.

Dude! Thanks you so much. Worked like a charm. Awesome.
the post says it's for 2.3.4, so i'm not sure if it works on 2.3.3... i'm in the midst of cooking up my own rom.

Not sure. But at one point I attempted to pull the system/lib/egl folder from marcusant's anonymous i3 ROM (it had a working stock launcher) and replace it on eh06, didn't work. Ai3 was 2.3.3. But I was trying to put it in a 2.3.4 ROM. Needless to say I don't know what I'm doing. But maybe that folder from Ai3 will work do for all other ef02 roms if this zip doesn't.
Out of curiousity. Now that we have this. Does anyone a zip of the actual nexus s launcher. I'm using one I found on here but its not completely stock. When you go into landscape mode it turns into the froyo launcher.

Just for kicks, i went and downloaded a Nexus S Stock ROM... Come to find out that the landscape view on it is Froyo look aswell. The GB Launcher on the market seems to just be a slimmed down version. I'll zip the fix and launcher up and post in Themes.
Oh that's super weird but it makes sense cuz of the lack of a keyboard. Good stuff though.

Yes. That one., it is comparable with ec09, and very east to use. You need to have adb and jdk installed (which you should anyway, if you want to do anything to your phone as a fail safe). There are a multitude of tutorials out there on that. But, if you need help, let me know.

Okay, so I figured it out, sort of. I connected my phone, pulled the framework-res.apk, changed the softkey look and remap, decided to remove the weather/ticker history while I was there, repackaged it, and made the flashable zip.
The problem is, once I've flashed it via CWM, my phone gets stuck on the verizon wireless animation during boot and shuts off. The softkeys are lit up, and I can see they are still the old original keys. Am I doing something wrong? It looks like my phone isn't working anymore as it won't boot all the way through.

I thought maybe it was me using the wrong settings or something in TB101's Framework Maker, so I went to Cisco's theme thread and downloaded his EC09 ICS theme. But same problem... framework FC's. So it might be my ROM or one of my apps?
Thanks man, I really appreciate the help!

Are You deodexed? Go to /system/app using any root browser, and see if you have any files that say "odex" on the end. If so, you can't do any if these mods. You need to flash a deodexed rom.

I'm definitely running a deodexed ROM. So it can't be that.

Nope. Never got any errors. It said successful for everything I did. But regardless of what I edited, my phone always got stuck on the verizon animation and randomly vibrated from time to time.
I feel like there's some setting I overlooked... but I don't know what. Could you make some instructions for me or something? I literally have no idea what I'm messing up, and I really want some ICS softkeys haha

Alright, so good news. I got Cisco's ICS theme up and running. Even though my ROM was deodexed, I thought there might be a problem with it, so I flashed pat's clean EC09 on top of it. Then I tried installing the theme, and it took on the first go. Thanks for all the assistance Tx!

Your ICS theme is dope, thanks for making it!
One question though, is AOSP lockscreen out for EC09? I noticed it's a modified puzzle lock, which is really neat, but I loved the functionality of silencing my phone from the lock screen.
Additionally, regarding the puzzle lock, I noticed the outline for where the puzzle piece fits is above where the piece actually needs to be to unlock the phone... any fix for that? Really a minor issue though, just wondered if it's something you knew about or something local on my phone!

I think I did a tutorial on how to change to aosp lock.
Before you do that though, go into /data/local and look for a file called "enable glass lock". If it's there, delete it. ciscogee's ics it's built on trailblazers mods, which include aosp lock.

Why not just turn on airplane mode then turn on WiFi?

Why on earth would you want that? And as xT4Z1N4TRx said just put on airplane mode and then switch over to wifi.
he wants a wifi tablet/iTouch lol

It's a legitimate request I've seen before. I mean, why let your old devices just waste away when your children or family members could totally use them as dirt cheap replacements for iPods and such. You don't want them making accidental emergency calls or circumventing the settings you put in place.
Should be able to completely remove the radio somehow so that the cellular stuff just won't work.

That's what I need my friend broke his iPod and I told I got this old phone laying around but the u gotta put it into aplane mode each reboot and he ain't tech savvy

Maybe this is a project for some of the budding devs on xda. In theory, it sounds like a simple change. Simply remove the phone aspects of a rom and repackage. I'm sure it's harder than it sounds in terms of stability and usability though (I'm not a dev) =/

Eh, some apps certainly wouldn't work, anything that needs to communicate through telephony and such. But really shouldn't be that difficult.
I'll come back when I'm not too terribly busy with some links about breaking down and customizing ROMs and such. I know that I've found a thread specifically for this kind of thing for another device, but there are a few of them I read up on so it may take a while to locate. Hell, you could just about remove the phone and contacts apps and edit your build.prop and leave an existing ROM intact. I'm no dev or anything though lol so I'll look around.

TeamDRH over in the gTablet forums have added something similar to this into their ICS ROM for gTablet. Might be a useful place to look.
Ok well.I went and remove like all telephony apk in my Rom and some app don't work like he said

Not the OG article I had read, but after a bit of Googling I came up with a script that you should be able to set to run at boot which will disable your radio.
You may also be able to dial *#*#INFO#*#* and choose turn off radio, but that will not be persistent across reboots. I would use the script and a third-party launcher that can hide apps so that you'll keep the phone and contacts apps and such for stability, but not have them readily available.
*EDIT:
And a flashable zip! Thank you jellybellys!
**EDIT:
Just to elaborate about that flashable zip, it will actually "permanently" (until you wipe and install another ROM) disable the radio and clean out the apps that you don't want. Also installs some kind of binaries if they're currently absent from the ROM. Great find, I'm glad you asked about this!
exactly, my first thought would be just to use titanium backup and disable/freeze but not remove apps such as dialer or what you dont want/need. not sure if this will work but its worth a try. probably a few treads across xda on this (especially on older model phones) id search in those and see if there is a quick answer short of developing a whole new rom
Yeah I use that zip from jellybean but like android.process forced close alone with like sms app this is all on miui

So you used the zip, and once booted those processes were force closing?
I'll try it out on my phone, see if I can't replicate the issue and speak with the dev. Exactly what MIUI build are you on?
*EDIT:
Installed on EliteMod 120316 and upon first boot did get something about the mms process FC'ing. Upon subsequent reboots no more message though, have you tried another reboot? You had two processes FC?

This is a swing in the dark...
Try remove htcril.so or libhtcril.so from system/lib.... That should disable the radio and keep Wi-Fi

So that's the MIUI.us "Pure English?" I've just downloaded the last available build and will soon flash and then install jellybellys's zip. I'm hoping that will get me the same FC's as you are.
Once you've gotten home after the weekend, try rebooting it a time or two and see if it consistently gives you the FC's.
Also, just curious, but are you using MIUI just because it's the most similar Android overlay to iOS? To make it a bit easier for your friend? Because you could hook him up with some ICS goodness otherwise
*EDIT:
Ok, looking through his updater-script vs. my /system/app/ directory, it looks like MIUI names a couple of apk's differently. I'm currently installing a fresh MIUI so that I can see the directory before moddified by the OG jellybellys zip, then I'll update his zip to reflect those different names and try to run it again. If successful, I'll post the modified file and hopefully we can get your friend a fun little multi-tasking media player
Ok sweet umm can u send me the edit zip

Had a good look at the flashable zip, very simple. I need to learn to code, I guess this is a good small place to start lol
All I did was unzip his file, change a few things and added a couple extra lines to remove one more app he hadn't worried with. As said above this will disable your radio, install the radiooptions binary if absent, and remove a number of apk's from the /system/app/ directory.
Removed apps:
TelephonyProvider.apk - cellular service
TelocationProvider.apk - emergency location service (I just don't see the need if you're not connecting to cellular networks)
Phone.apk - your phone app - should also get rid of dialer, I'm trying to find out why it doesn't.
Mms.apk - messaging app
All credit to jellybellys @ rootzwiki.com of course, I couldn't have written this myself or anything.
jellybellys-mod-wifionly-MIUI
Again, the phone app will still be on the homescreen and you actually can't remove it. It won't dial anything, and will just cause the acore process to FC if you try. It's looking like the only way to get it really removed is to modify the ROM's zip so that it never installs the app to begin with.
I'm going to restore the apps again, see if Titanium Backup can't do a better job than outright removing the app does.
